to speed up the Guest I want to switch my two disks from IDE to SATA according to the following instructions:
(1) Shut down the Guest
(2) Add a SATA controller without a device
(3) Start the Guest, Xp will ask for the SATA driver
(4) Install the SATA driver
(5) Shut down the Guest
(6) Remove the two disks from the IDE controller and connect it to the SATA controller
(7) Start the Guest
To (4): The manual 6.0.0 says in chapter 6.1. (Hard Disk Controllers):
This site shows a table with two links in two lines, where each linked site provides a "Get Started" button. However, these buttons refer to the current system, and since I refuse to go online by Xp, it's Win 8.1. Finally I found a site "Intel® Matrix Storage Manager" with a previously released version referring to Windows Xp.Oracle VM VirtualBox recommends the Intel Matrix Storage drivers, which can be downloaded from http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product ... uctID=2101
My questions are:
(a) Where can I get the latest version?
(b) Which of the downloads should I use (IATA89CD.exe, f6flpy3289.zip, f6flpy6489.zip, IATA89ENU.exe)? I think it's f6flpy3289.zip.
